5.Inspection and Investigation by Purchaser; Acceptance of Property “As Is”.

Purchaser acknowledges that it has previously conducted an environmental and other inspections of the Property deemed necessary or desirable by Purchaser in order to satisfy itself as to all conditions of the Property.  Purchaser acknowledges and confirms that the sale of the Property is strictly “as is” and that, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, no representations or warranties have been made or shall be deemed to be made by Seller with respect to any aspect of the Property. Purchaser releases Seller and its officers, members, affiliates, successors and assigns from all liability respecting the condition of the Property, including, without limitation, its environmental condition; provided, however, that such release shall not apply to (i) claims based on fraud, or (ii) claims against TrynEx, Inc. and/or the Shareholders (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) under the Asset Purchase Agreement.

6.Seller’s Representations and Warranties.

A.As a material inducement to Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and consummate the purchase and sale of the Property, the Seller represents and warrants as follows:

(i)The Seller is duly organized and validly existing and in good standing as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of Michigan.

(ii)The Seller has full power, authority and legal right to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby, and the Seller will deliver to the Title Company on or before the Closing Date such resolutions as may be required by it for the purpose of issuing the Owner’s Title Insurance Policy.

(iii)The party signing this Agreement on behalf of the Seller has full power and authority to bind the Seller.

(iv)Neither the execution, delivery nor performance of this Agreement (or of any instrument or document to be executed or delivered pursuant to the terms hereof) will result in the violation of any contractual obligation of the Seller to any third party; nor will such execution, delivery or performance conflict with, constitute an event of default under, or result in a breach of or violation of the provisions of any agreement or other instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which its properties or assets are bound, or of any applicable law, judgment, order, writ, injunction, decree, rule or regulation of any court, administrative agency or other governmental authority, or any determination or award of any arbitrator.

(v)Subject to the Permitted Encumbrances, Seller holds indefeasible fee simple title to the Property, and no party other than Purchaser has any claim to the Property by reason of any purchase agreement, option to purchase, right of first refusal, land installment contract, lease or other similar agreement or instrument or, to Seller’s Knowledge, by adverse possession or other prescriptive right, except for two current tenants, Sterling Education, Inc. and UBT (collectively, the “At Will Tenants”), who are occupying 3,200 and 510 square feet, respectively, of the Improvements under unsigned leases.

(vi)True, correct and complete copies of the unsigned leases pursuant to which the At Will Tenants are occupying such premises (the “At Will Leases”), as well as an executed estoppel certificate from each At Will Tenant, are attached hereto as Exhibit E.  The tenancy of the At Will Tenants may be terminated upon thirty (30) days’ notice.  All rent, charges and other payments due Seller under the At Will Leases have been paid in full through May 14, 2013.  Seller does not hold a security deposit under either At Will Lease.  Neither Seller nor either At Will Tenant is currently in default under the At Will Leases and, to the best of Seller’s knowledge, no event has occurred which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, might constitute an event of default under either At Will Lease.

(vii)Seller is not a “foreign person” within the meaning of Section 1445(f)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

(viii)Seller is not a party to any contract or agreement relating to the Property which may be binding on Purchaser or the Property from and after Closing, other than those contracts, if any, set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto and made a part hereto (the “Assumed Contracts”).

B.Seller agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any and all claims, demands, causes of action, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) asserted against or incurred by Purchaser by reason of or arising out of a breach of any representation or warranty of Seller set forth in this Agreement.  Seller’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive Closing.

7.Documents to be Furnished on Closing Date and Funding Date.  On the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver, or cause the Title Company to deliver, to Purchaser the following documents:

A.A covenant deed to the Property, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances, in the form attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit C.

B.An assignment to Purchaser of all of the right, title and interest of Seller in, to and under the Assumed Contracts, if any.

C.A real estate transfer valuation affidavit executed by Seller in form prescribed by the Oakland County Register of Deeds for determining the amount of transfer tax payable with respect to the conveyance of the Property to Purchaser hereunder.

D.A non-foreign Seller certification in the form prescribed by IRC §1445, if required.

E.A termination of that certain Lease dated April 1, 2010, between Seller, as landlord, and Trynex, Inc., a Michigan corporation, as tenant.

G.The Owner’s Title Insurance Policy.

H.Any and all such other documents, instruments and items as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser or the Title Company to consummate the transactions contemplated herein.

On the Closing Date, Purchaser shall deliver, or cause the Title Company to deliver, to Seller the following:

12.Prorations.  All utility charges with respect to the Property and charges under service contracts and other like agreements relating to the Property shall be prorated between Purchaser and Seller as of the Closing Date.  In addition, all city, county and/or state ad valorem property taxes levied upon the Property shall be prorated between Purchaser and Seller as of the Closing Date on a due date basis and all assessments of any kind on the Property, whether or not due in installments, shall be prorated between Purchaser and Seller as of the Closing Date on the basis of the estimated useful life of each improvement to which such assessment relates as agreed upon in good faith by Purchaser and Seller.

13.Closing Costs.  Purchaser shall pay (i) the cost of recording the deed conveying the Property to Purchaser, and (ii) the cost of any endorsements desired by Purchaser to the Owner’s Title Insurance Policy.  Seller shall pay (i) the premium for the Owner’s Title Insurance Policy to be issued pursuant to paragraph 3A, (ii) the cost of the Survey to be provided pursuant to paragraph 3B, and (iii) all documentary, intangible, transfer and other taxes with respect to the deed.

16.Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall bind the parties and their respective successors and assigns.  Neither party to this Agreement may assign all or any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party.

17.Additional Documents.  Each party agrees to execute any additional documents reasonably requested by the other party to carry out the intent of this Agreement.
